How old is too older to be?

I think we all change.
I'm a hermit compared to how I was when I was a teenager.
If work does not get you out and about...fair enough.
Just not sure being on your own will do anything other than make you skint. Stay at home, get a life.

 

i know a banker who makes pretty damn good money, who still lives at home with his parents - in the projects. he has money to buy his own house. haha

 

Having some extra cash aint gonna change much for me execpt self esteem... im not sure the rest of your advice has any meaning nothing personal.

 

Just finished up the school year in June and still without of a good paying job until Jan...I live in Florida with my mom.

I guess I suck at life. LoOL.

 

It depends on a lot of factors.
Too old for me was 18, hell, I would have left sooner if they would have let me.
No one in hubbys immediate family made it to 18 living with his mom(understandable if you meet her).

...that said, my brother in his thirties JUST moved out of my parents house. It was different in their circumstance because he wasn't an unemployed drain on their finances, still being taken care of by mom and dad... It was the other way around. For the past 10 yrs at least he has been bringing home the bulk of their income, taking care of them,and helping run the household...In fact, when he moved out I got worried and asked "what about mom and dad",he had to reassure me he would not move far and still come over for dinner with them LOL

 

I was vague.

We all change as we get older, our priorities change, perhaps we do not need to go out and about as much as we once did. If that is what you want still, I'd stay at home but get a life and get out more, while saving money from not having so many expenditures.

I hope that is not so vague.

 

if you live with them, cook for them
my folks used to love that

I couldn't stand them though, sorry fam...

I prefer to be alone.

 

your posts look so nakie without the mantra.

 

good.

 

No i dig ya, i dont really want to go out so much but i mostly have trouble meeting women now days and i am very lonely.

 

now your a nakie stalker

 

I am sorry to hear that.
Well you have a lovely internet personality

 

Well a lovely internet personality isn't going to get me too far in that department but thank you none the less.

 

Well my mother took off for another state when I was 19 years old, and I didn't want to go with her because I wasn't about to leave my husband (then fiance). So the two of us moved in together, he was 23 years old at the time. We married a year later. Let me tell you, my mom leaving and me having to hack it on my own was actually a really positive thing in the fact that it forced me to grow up and start taking responsibility for myself. It was scarey, yes, but it taught me a lot. My mother always said that when she came back, it was like I had matured 10 years (but not in a bad way!).

As far as how old is too old? Personally I'd think if a guy were still living at home at 25 (the absolute max!), that would be just way too much. Even that's pushing it. My brother in law, and I do love that kid, is 24 and has no plans whatsoever to move out of his parents' house anytime soon. However, I think if he met the right girl and things got serious he'd be more willing to move out. But living at home isn't exactly helping his game plan.

Then again, as a mother, I couldn't even think of kicking any of my kids out no matter how old they were. However, by 20, they would have to contribute financially if they chose to still be at home. They need to learn some responsibility, I'd not be doing my job as a parent if I didn't teach them that. Paying bills is a part of life. I'm not talking that they would pay the mortage, but they would need to pay some type of rent. Not an obscene amount obviously, but something.

 

I agree about 25 not that it would bother my parents but it would bother me.

 

Oh right, I see.

Well I live on my own, but I still find it difficult meeting women.
It is you as a person (and perhaps your parents willingness for you to bring women home) that you should think about rather than where you happen to be living IMO.

 

i dont know depends

i know this one guy who is 50 some and lives with his parents

 

I agree that being the right thing is more attractive to women then the right adress but i think living at home shows an inability to mature and i know that women have a problem with that.

 

Is he a 50 year old virgin?

 

no he has a son
